That. Is. A. Spine.
Not just for tonight I must say, but for the future. If I were to base it on tonight, I would add in Hoggy as well however he's a bit hot and cold.
Smith had two great saves tonight but more impressively, he did the "simple" things well i.e knowing when to leave his line, knowing when to punch, knowing when to catch.
Hanlon belied his tender years with a mature performance and didn't allow himself to be hustled and bustled by two quite physical strikers.
Miller and McBride are decent individually, outstanding as a pair. The way they dovetail each other, cover for each other and find each other is a joy to watch. Absolutely outstanding again.
And as for Stokesy, well, sometimes he drifts in and out of a game but that boy is f****ng lethal in front of goal.
Absolutely overjoyed with tonight's performance, I don't think I could fault anyone.
Aye, we were up against it at times and aye the defence looked less than watertight at times but hey, we've went to Parkhead with 3, yes three (THREE!!!) strikers and won the game.
We've went to Parkhead with only 3 midfielders (when most teams have five at least at that ground) and they refused to be overrun.
And in defence and in goals, we had five men who, although at times under the cosh, refused to buckle and put bodies on the line and organised themselves well enough to get the 3 points.
Add to that the humping Hearts suffered and the fact I predicted another good night again tonight (on the PM board before the game), I think I'll tuck into another Stella, spark up a celebratory fag and enjoy the contrasting post-match views on here and JKB.
Hope they roasters from across the road enjoyed their "one-upmanship" over Darren Barr........the club that owns the Capital have just p!ssed on their chips in the best manner possible.
LeChat, suck my left one ya rootin' tootin' ersehole

Been a long time since I've felt so secure about any of our goalkeepers, but you could see the strength drawn from the back.

PH - I honestly think you have been responsible for at least 10 of the best posts I've ever read on here.
That is absolute classLife should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

Unless you're a hunchback of course.
But I see your point in terms of his importance."Play for the name on the front of the jersey and the supporters will remember the name on the back"
